Hernia Mesh

Hello, Ms. Vance. Thank you for calling The Editorial Juris. I understand you're reaching out about a hernia mesh issue. Can you tell me a bit about your situation?
Yes, I had hernia mesh surgery in 2019, and I've been experiencing significant pain ever since. My doctor says the mesh may have eroded. I want to know if I have a case.
I'm sorry to hear about your ongoing pain. Mesh erosion is one of the most commonly reported complications, and it's a central issue in the current litigation. Can you tell me which mesh product was used in your surgery?
I believe it was a Physiomesh product. But I checked online and I couldn't find it on the recall list. Does that mean I can't pursue anything?
Not at all. While Physiomesh was voluntarily withdrawn from the market in 2016, many mesh products involved in litigation were never formally recalled by the FDA. A product doesn't need to be on an official recall list for you to have a valid claim. The lawsuits focus on design defects, inadequate warnings, and documented complications — all of which apply regardless of recall status.
REBUTTAL DETECTED: Recall Status
Oh, I didn't know that. So the fact that I'm still in pain three years later is enough?
Your documented complications — the ongoing pain, the specialist's erosion diagnosis — are exactly the kind of evidence that forms the basis of a strong claim. The longer the complications persist, the more it demonstrates the severity of the harm caused by the device.
That's a relief. I've been dealing with this for so long and felt like nobody could help. What do I need to do next?
I'll collect some basic information from you today, and then we'll request your surgical and medical records. One of our attorneys will review your case and get back to you within 48 hours. You don't need to do anything complicated on your end.
That sounds perfect. Let's get started.
